Antifungal effect of Ag nanoparticles on culture filtrate and cell. Scanning electron microscopy images of hyphae of Alternaria alternata treated with silver, copper, or copper/silver nanoparticles. Fungal hyphae grown on potato dextrose agar plates as (a) control or supplemented with 15 mgL−1, (b) Ag, (c) Cu, or (d) Ag/Cu nanoparticle solution, respectively, Photos were taken at seven days after the incubation period [29].
